This place is perfect for a great night out. Our server Martin was exceptional. I recommend to anyone in the Cleveland area looking for great food and a great atmosphere to fit the season.
Everything was good. The food is excellent, tasty , exquisite like for a good French resto in Paris . But cheaper ;) We spent $85 for food for the family of 2 adults and 2 teens . We ordered 2 main course dishes, one big appetizer to share and 2 came for free ( warm fresh rolls with antipasti of oils and olives ). We had beer ($5...,what?) And 2-3 hot pots of tea. The restaurants only charged us $2 for all the cups of tea we kept asking for. It was a generous present for us after the long day. Thank you all, the team of The Standard! You really keep your standards high ;)
As a frequent customer at this restaurant I was a bit disappointed how the seating arrangements has changed. It seemed a bit more crowded and lacked an intimate dining experience. The tables were extremely to close for my liking. I then opted to move, which placed me on the patio. It was extremely cold. However they was taken care of with turning on the propane heaters. My table and dish waa dirty from the plants falling onto them. It was hair on my tablecloth. I informed the waitress and she change my cloth.
The food was excellent as always. Said never disappoints. The food was fresh, good temperature and excellent flavoring. Always enough to take home for another day.
The Standard is amazing!!
We were so pleased with the whole experience! Staff was wonderful and time for everything was good and appropriate!
What was ordered:
Drinks: Chardonnay, The Standard special cocktail- both good!
Starters: French onion soup, asparagus soup, beet salad - all 10/10!!!
Meals: Stuffed salmon special, stuffed with crabmeat and topped with jumbo shrimp, vegetables and potatoes and a sauce, lamb lollipops and I personally ordered the braised short ribs all 10/10 and wonderful but my short ribs were phenomenal!!
Dessert: Breas pudding and the lemon cheesecake. Both made in house, both great. I’d personally prefer a sauce over the bread putting but it was great with the ice cream and whipped cream! The lemon cheesecake was so fresh and lemon curd on top was amazing!
Very pleased. Will definitely be back. Price for the portions were great.
The atmosphere was beautiful, romantic and clean.
We parked on the street, I did not see a clear parking lot but also didn’t care.
Posted on the door was a dress code, no hats was all I saw when I passed. I didn’t see anyone in jeans so not sure if that was on the list. Can call and inquiry more to be sure.
Try it, you won’t be disappointed!

Everything was fresh, Our waitress Nicole was very attentive, patient and knowledgeable of the specials/menu. I hope I get her when I go back for jazz night. The food came out hot, delicious, everything was prepared perfectly to the description. This place greatly exceeded the expectations I didn’t have. The atmosphere at night on the patio is awesome, great music. The food was so damn impressive. It was hard enough deciding from the menu and then you hear the specials. Please go. This is an awesome hidden gem
The atmosphere was great! From the door to my seat, everyone was very hospitable. I almost gave the review 4 stars because of my 1st waiter. He was polite, but not very knowledgeable about the wine selection. But the owner took over and things became 5 star stellar! My eggplant rollatini was bursting with flavor. My salmon and carrots melted in my mouth. I'll definitely be going back again.
This place is a diamond in the rough. The neighborhood has been a place that is both endearing to locals and at the same time looked down upon by other neighborhood elitists. It is a place that would easily be overlooked by out of towners just by location alone but if by chance you venture down 185th you will see the old timey Marquis type sign that is vibrant , vintage, intriguing and fun. This restaurant reminds me of a place that you would see in a hopping WW2 military town. It has an endearing Americana welcoming intrigue that makes you want to step inside to see what is in store for you through the front door. That is just the outside of the building.
When you enter, you see a bustling , yet classy dining area with a bar along the wall to your left. The hardwood floors are beautiful, the high ceilings with the detailed trim are an added appeal to the eye. We had chosen to eat in the outdoor dining area both times we visited. As we were led through the restaurant we passed an open window to the kitchen where you can see and smell the amazing menu options available. The outdoor seating area is reminiscent to other eateries I have had the pleasure of enjoying in other big cities on the East Coast (New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, etc.) It is definitely a place that makes you feel like you got to travel away from home to experience. The decor is breezy, the plants and lighting are bright enough for a creative ambiance without being overbearing or too busy.
The menu is PRICEY. Expect that. The portions are big which for me means I get to enjoy it later as well. The flavors are atypical to your average dining options and that is refreshing.
Prepare to enjoy a night out that feels like you took a flight somewhere far away to have this experience.
My wife and I visited this little gem for our 21st anniversary and were pleasantly surprised! I ordered the bouillabase and she ordered the lollipop lamb chops. Both amazing! I have been wanting to try a bouillabase for over a decade. The broth was pure magic. Great service and ambiance as well.
Highly recommend. The food, wine and service are amazing. Calvin was a great, attentive server. My husband ordered the bolognese and loved it. I ordered the chix tagine and it was delicious. They brought us wine tastings to see which one we liked best. Love this place.
Huge portions beware - the normal entrées feed 2-3 people! Flavorful, absolutely, insanely good food. We tried some different dishes than we would normally get, enjoyed all of them. Try the braised lamb risotto, mediterranean seafood pasta, and the vegetable couscous! Great ambiance, beautiful outdoor seating, nice waitstaff!
